1. learning about greek mythology is important because it
a. tells accurate accounts of people in the past
b. is the same for all civilizations
c. explain the origins of some words
d. explains scientific processes

The correct answer is C. helps explain the origins of some words.

Explanation:

A is incorrect because myths are made-up in order to explain some occurrences from nature. They are not accurate - they represent stories of heroes and their accomplishments and have little to do with actual lives of people in the past.

B is also incorrect because Greek mythology is about ancient Greece rather than other civilizations. Every civilization has its own myths.

D is incorrect because myths explain natural processes, not scientific.

Therefore, the only correct answer is C. Some words originate from myths, like the word atlas (a book of maps), which comes from the Greek myth about the titan Atlas who had to carry the heavens on his shoulders, or the word typhoon (a type of storm) which comes from the Greek myth about Typhon, a sea monster.

a. is the correct answer
